Mark Zuckerberg:

We just announced our quarterly results and gave an update on our progress to bring the world closer together. Our community is now more than 2 billion people, including more than 1.3 billion people who use Facebook every day.
I'm proud of the progress our community is making, and it comes with a responsibility to make sure we have the most positive impact on the world that we can. That's why, last month, we updated Facebook's mission to focus not just on connecting the world, but also bringing the world closer together.
A big part of this is building community. We've set a goal to help 1 billion people join groups that become a meaningful part of their lives both online and in the physical world, and last month we rolled out new tools to help people start and grow communities on Facebook.
This quarter we also announced that more than 250 million people use Instagram Stories every day, and more than 250 million people use WhatsApp Status every day. We're going to keep improving and giving you more ways to share.
As always, it's an honor to be on this journey with you.

In the fourth quarter of 2016, we elected to early adopt Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvement to Employee Share-based Payment Accounting (ASU 2016-09). We were required to reflect any adoption adjustments as of January 1, 2016, the beginning of the annual period that included the interim period of adoption. As such, certain financial highlights data for the three months ended June 30, 2016 had been adjusted to reflect the impact of ASU 2016-09 adoption. See Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Note 1) in the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for detailed adoption information.
